- Now place your chocolate hollow spheres on the kitchen table, ready to be filled in the next step.21 Dark hollow spheres
- Fill the chocolate-orange marmalade mixture into a piping bag.
- Once the piping bag is filled, twist the wide end together to build up good pressure.
- Fill up the hollow spheres with the orange ganache to just below the rim.
- I recommend doing this slowly and gently, so there are no air spaces.
- Place the filled hollow spheres in the refrigerator for 12-24 hours to crystallize.
- After the cooling time, start tempering the chocolate. You can do this in a water bath or a tempering device.
- First, you need to seal the chocolates. To do this, pour a small amount of the melted chocolate into a squeeze bottle and seal the opening with the chocolate with a small dot.⅓ cup Dark chocolate
- Place the sealed chocolates in the refrigerator for 10 minutes to allow the chocolate to set.
- Prepare the minced almond slivers in a bowl next to your melted chocolate.Minced almond slivers for rolling
- Prepare the chocolate paper cups or a sandwich paper to place the truffles after rolling.
- Now take your sealed chocolates out of the refrigerator and take 1-4 chocolates in one hand.
- Dip the fingers of the other hand into the melted couverture and coat and roll the 1-4 chocolates. Once you have them nicely coated with couverture, place them in the prepared bowl of almond slivers.
- Move the bowl back and forth to roll the chocolates in the almond flakes evenly. Place them on a piece of greaseproof paper or directly in the cups afterward.
- Keep doing so until all the pralines are coated and decorated with almond slivers.
- Place them in the chocolate paper molds and store them in an air-tight container.
